 Hatshepsut - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hatshepsut surrounded herself by strong and loyal advisors, many of whom are still known today: Hapuseneb, the High Priest of Amun; Nehsi, a Nubian general; and her closest advisor, the royal steward Senemut.
As Hatshepsut reestablished the trade networks that had been disrupted during the Hyksos occupation of Egypt (the Second Intermediate Period), the wealth of the 18th dynasty—that has become so famous since the discovery of the burial of Tutankhamun—began to be collected.
She oversaw the preparations and funding for a mission, led by Nehsi, to the Land of Punt.

Senmut was made the tutor and guardian of her daughter Neferure, and Chief Steward of the royal household, in charge of all the formal occasions.
Nehsi, with Nubian connections but educated at the Egyptian court, was put in charge of the household accounts.
When Senmut was a young man, before he came to the court, he had spent some years in the North in the House of Life at Men-nefer, the great building attached to the Temple of Ptah that housed the archives of ancient texts, where scholars and scribes studied, copied and memorised.

Poe, pointed out the flaw of a reviewer of the book Black Athena, who tried to say that the firece fighting between the Nubians and Egyptians constituted not simply wars, but racial wars.
Breasted went so far as to translate the word "Nehsi" in the Senwosret III stela saying "No Nehsi may pass" to mean Negro.
